How many seeds?
Life has been busy and I miss blogging a lot. Between work, studying for my Masters, and preparing for my US citizenship interview, I was exhausted and have been neglecting my blog and the garden. I'm glad things have started to settle down and I'm finally back!
We had our first frost warning two days ago. My green pepper and chilli peppers are still outside. The leaves have started turning yellow. It's been so busy this past week that I didn't have time to do any gardening work. I will have to set aside some time this weekend to fix up my garden.
One of my favorite blogger, Fern from Life on the Balcony have started an interesting contest. You need to guess how many cilantro seeds is in her photo. If you guess it right, you will get a prize! The deadline is Oct 13th, so hurry and put your entry in now.
Fern-my guess is 82.
Cooking Mama does gardening
How many of you have played Cooking Mama? In this game, you learn how to cook and prepare foods. You combine the raw ingredients together as you cook them on the stove. The recipes are real and you actually interact on the touch screen (for Nintendo DS) with a stylus. For some dishes you can even blow on the microphone to cool down some food. You use the stylus just like using a tool in the kitchen to cut vegetables, stir, pound, etc.
They are coming out with Gardening Mama at the end of the year! I can even water my virtual plants, pick the bulbs and determine what's the right amount of fertilizer to use! Can't wait to see what they're going to do with the stylus and touchscreen this time. Winter time is the perfect time for this game!
